THE Ballon d'Or is the biggest annual individual prize in football.
The trophy, organised by France Football Magazine, is the go-to prize to determine the world's best player.
Lionel Messi has won the prize six times, while Cristiano Ronaldo has taken home the gong on five occasions.
And a year after the prize was axed due to the Covid-19 pandemic, fans are waiting to find out when the 2021 award will be announced.
When is the 2021 Ballon d'Or being announced?
The prize is set to be announced by France Football on Monday, November 29.
As usual, Paris will host a glitzy ceremony at the Chatelet Theatre where the players will be suited and booted.
How can I watch the Ballon d'Or and can I live stream it?
